VG how worrying for you. trapped wind is awful, have suffered for years although have never bothered to find out what causes it

TwilightSurfer · 08/04/2008 21:32

VG, I can honestly admit that your DH is not here. Would have to be a REALLY LONG RUN.

TwilightSurfer · 08/04/2008 21:34

Captain I've come to realize the occasional pain I feel in my tummy area is probably little fingers. {{CUE ALIEN MUSIC}}

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:37

dizzy it was horrid at the time but if it's just wind I'm not too worried about it, it's just a ....

pain in the arse.

Sorry!
Hmm thanks TS the crunching gravel wasn't him after all! No doubt he will show up all salty and sweaty and healthy and full of the joys! TS how do you know it's fingers???? Can you feel them from the outside do you mean?

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:39

Here he is bearing Crunchy Nut Cornflakes and the bigger of our two dogs (who today ate a box of chocolates one of my students gave me )

Ladies you are off the hook, though not beyond suspicion for next time.

CaptainCaveman · 08/04/2008 21:39

Dizzy it's me with trapped wind - I found that going up the loft earlier did 'dislodge' some of it (sadly not in dh's face though!)

And Yes, our house is up for sale - got someone coming round to view it tomorrow evening. WE have got someone wanting to buy it but they haven't sold theirs yet. Hope to have moved before baby Cavey arrives but won't be holding my breath!

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:39

Oh dear I think I have a form of posting diarrhoea (sp?).

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:40

Gosh CC how exciting I hope you get sorted before labour day - you do still have a good bit of time. Do you have your eye on a new spot?

CaptainCaveman · 08/04/2008 21:41

Eh? VG is your dh about to eat your dog?? With some cereal?? Man you lot are weird.

OP posts:
dizzydixies · 08/04/2008 21:41

sorry for micing up the ladies with wind

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:42

The wild Irish, you know. Old habits die hard. They do worse in Scotland, you know.

He's started taking the dog running with him lately, wears em both out!

CaptainCaveman · 08/04/2008 21:42

Yeah we have found a place we like, only about a mile from here (if that). Lovely big flat garden...nice view, 4 bed detached...

OP posts:
dizzydixies · 08/04/2008 21:43

easy paddy!

cc sounds brilliant

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:45

Arf arf.

CC new house sounds gorge!

CaptainCaveman · 08/04/2008 21:46

here it is

right, I'm off to put my feet up for 5 minutes before I fall into bed. Catch you in the morning!

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:47

Have only just seen Buckets' comment re post-its am LOLLING. God expressing milk was awful for me, I hated it, had a hand pump, oh shudder, the memories!

On serious note my sister says lecky ones are much better. Assuming bf goes ok I'd like to express a bottle a day if possible for DP to feed with. Moving DS from breast to bottle (for me going back to work) was dreadful last time.

dizzydixies · 08/04/2008 21:49

night cavey vg I bf both of mine and gave them both a bottle from 3weeks with expressed milk so they wouldn't refuse it later on.

worked fine with dd1, had more problems with dd2 so no idea how its going to go this time

am thinking of a refresher as it was due to mistakes I was making that second time didn't go too well

TwilightSurfer · 08/04/2008 21:50

Dizzy it has to be fingers. I get this poke feeling every now and then in different locations close to where I'm getting bumped internally.

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:55

Night night Cap'n sleep tight at your (hopefully) new bedroom by the way it's fab, whole house is. Can just see a moses basket lit up beside that beautiful window. Fingers crossed for you!

dizzy Yes I think I will start expressing not immediately but after about 3 weeks or so, once it's well established. I need to read up about strategies for that in advance, I think, it's too stressful at the time.

Bed soon for me too, have doc first thing in am, so will get teeny scan, and then work.

TS I wish I could identify the different movements like that, I can't even tell what's head and what's feet at the moment! You seem to be very in touch with your babba, I better slow down & start listening in a bit more.

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 21:59

LOL Sazzles well spotted! Pump n dump you mean you did this to keep the flow of milk up but not tarnish your wee one with alcohol-tinged supper? Did you use hand or mechanical?

Cavey that house looks fab - I can see us all milling about on the lawn drinking pims and tripping over all the crawling babies next summer at our one year reunion

VG I used hand pump both times but bloody hell its hard going

boths dd's slept better after a wee tipple

VintageGardenia · 08/04/2008 22:14

Oh dear. Totally agree on the feck off front, though am useless at actually saying it, just bitterly repeat it to self on loop. Am hoping though that will be able to feed plus express enough to freeze for emergencies. Sounds like you had it well sorted, am impressed.

Re. alcohol crutch, no need to explain that one!!! Am completely with you!

Alors this is where I leave you, to my cube mountain and my book. (And my showered DP!)

Night night laydeez you are all fab.
